BADI CULTURE withZAMBON & STAHL

The collaboration between BADI CULTURE and ZAMBON & STAHL started in April 2015. Over half a year we crafted this idea into a collection of 4 foulard dessins: Tropical Ocean, Sandy Beach, Gordonsbay and Alpine Coast.

This collaboration was meant to be and we are excited to share these four scarfs with you.

Foulard Edition - Tropical Ocean

During the summer months the sea that surrounds Cape Town shines with a stunning bright turquoise-blue colour. The view from a cliff that overlooks this raw and untamed natural beauty is the inspiration and offers the rich colours that make up the design Tropical Ocean.

Foulard Edition - Sandy Beach

The design of Sandy Beach is a beautiful combination of two different photographs that have been merged together to create an elegant design. Noordhoek’s spectacular white sandy beach stretches along the coast of Cape Town, and is a place where land and sea melts seamlessly into each other for as far as the eye can see. This snapshot is combined with the stunning green wilderness of South Africa and offers two very beautiful contrasting images.

Foulard Edition - Gordonsbay

The five photographic elements give the design of Gordonsbay a nostalgic look and feel. The gentle waves which breathe life into the False Bay coastline, form a fitting boarder for the striped patterns within. The distant views of Gordon’s Bay and the endless expanses of the Atlantic Ocean are combined with the bright turquoise waters of the Cape Peninsula and of tropical palm tree leaves as they bask in a beautiful Mauritian sunset. The centre features a midsummer’s day at this beautiful Cape Town beach.

Foulard Edition - Alpine Coast

Two extreme contrasts characterise the diagonal striped patterns that make up the design Alpine Coast. Dark and shadowy mountains make up the landscape on the foot journey between Lucerne and the mountain village of Bettmeralp. This mystical and beautiful mountain range scenery is perfectly contrasted by imagery of fresh yellowish green palm tree leaves that weighed in the warm tropical morning sun on the breath-taking island of Mauritius.
